I bought myself a couple projects today 😁 I'll be posting updates to this new album here as I fight for their souls and try to solder them back into commission.

I'm re-amping Dexed through a few choice pedals and it is- if I may be so bold- EXACTLY what I think the northern lights sound like. I mean, if light made any sound. Look, just come see Almost, Maine, at Rolling Meadows High School next weekend, on October 10/11/12, and hear for yourself.

Happy birthday to me?

Tracked vocals with this here ribbon mic for the first time yesterday. Can't decide how I feel about it. Fortunately it was just scratch track, so there's time to redo it.

Don't confuse me with some kind of analog purist, though. This is strictly for the clout 🤷‍♂

I'm pleased to announce that I have today added a full license of Figure53's prestigious QLab to my bag of tricks. Sound, Video, and Lights (but mostly sound c'mon). No more renting licenses day-by-day! 😄

Ask me about designing your show with the golden standard in cueing and playback software, or renting a capable Mac Mini package to execute a design you already have.

Sorry to show up on your feed uninvited, but if your theatre group, high school, sports venue, or corporate event needs AV support, let's chat!

Niche, lo-fi, Soviet-era Russian microphone? Uhh sign me up?

It kinda seems like "Notes" posts are being phased out for Pages. So here's a Google Doc with a running tally of our inventory, in realtime. Note that at press time I haven't added studio gear to this yet.

"American Audio MX-1400, you knew from the day I bought you that you wouldn't always be my best mixer. But you'll always be my first. Thanks for everything, old friend ❤

Much thanks to all the new likes this week (and to all the likes before that, too). It's much appreciated.

BBF Live Sound is vigorously expanding its setup and actively looking for events. If you or someone you know has live gigs coming up and needs an awesome PA and experienced technicians to help run it, let's talk!

We strive to make our speak for itself. Here’s what some of our clients had to say about their experience with Boombox Friday.

So, the thing about looking behind my desk is... Don't do it.

Aaaand I have to re-patch the control booth

boomboxfriday.com seems to be back up and holding steady, with big thanks to our partner in crime and internet mastermind Alex Tumminaro. Check it out, and let me know if you see any issues (other than the total lack of substantive content)

The world's greatest music has been held up by the Manhasset M48, and now that can include yours 😉

When this is what my weekends look like, I'd say I'm living the dream.

Just a little update no one asked for. BBF is still kicking. I've been working on a lot of infrastructural stuff lately like templates for order worksheets and pricing spreadsheets in an effort to be more "official" about some things. The word "invoice" is currently being used and it's a little intimidating. It's not the most exciting work, but it's work, nevertheless. Best regards, friends, and have a safe, fun 4th-of-July weekend :)

Editing some live backing tracks for Remada. My man Matt is extremely driven and refreshingly no-nonsense and it's always a pleasure working with him. His band is going places, go check them out!

Everything I do regarding Boombox Friday Sound & Studio I do with my very heart and soul, and to those who take part in it, even just by following this page, I'm very sincerely grateful. It's incredible to me that people I don't even know took the time to like this page (and equally so that some people I've known for most of my life couldn't be bothered, but they're not who this post is about.) It's neither the first nor the last time I say it, but to each and every one of you: Thank you.

Engineered a short guitar piece Madison Self composed for a film he was asked to help score. Check it out!

Here's a bit of engineering that I did on a original guitar composition by my man Madison Self. I scrubbed out some pops that were picked up in the original capture, quantized it to tempo, did some li

There were probably things I was supposed to be doing today, but I built a DJ façade from scratch instead.

In regards to the "live setup" side of things, I've been expanding into some lighting for concerts and DJ gigs and what not. For instance: this disco ball 💃
